Privacy Policy

Last updated June 20, 2026

This is a starter template. Have a lawyer review and tailor it (and confirm GDPR/CCPA obligations) before launch.

1. Information We Collect

Account info you provide (email, username, display name, bio, location, avatar). Content you create (posts, vehicles, build logs, listings, messages, comments). Usage data such as device and log information collected automatically.

2. How We Use Your Information

To operate and improve the Service, authenticate you, deliver notifications you've enabled, power features like the feed, follows, and chat, and keep the platform safe.

3. What Others Can See

Your profile, garage, posts, and listings are visible to other users according to your privacy settings. Messages are visible to participants in a conversation. You control visibility in Settings.

4. Service Providers

We use third parties to run GearNet, including Supabase (authentication, database, storage) and may use image hosting and error-monitoring providers. They process data on our behalf under their own terms.

5. Data Retention

We keep your data while your account is active. When you delete content or your account, we remove it from the Service, subject to backups and legal requirements.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data. Contact us to exercise these rights.

7. Security

We use industry-standard measures to protect your data, but no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

8. Children's Privacy

GearNet is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.

9. Changes

We may update this policy and will revise the "last updated" date above.
